| S/W. (Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.) (Copy to Thru) 86118. Hn.{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders}13/MK.10.8.36. 38-EX. Your Ref: Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.15/JH.6.8.36. We have heard from Park Ward to the effect that the three-bladed wiper can be fitted to the body they have in hand for this chassis although because it carries two blades the offside gear box will project slightly above the top of their scuttle rail. However, we do not think this matters in an experimental car. The blue print with dimensions filled in by Park Ward is returned herewith. Hn.{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} | ||
